Transcript
- 0:01[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to the Cinderella and a sports report.
- 0:03[SPEAKER_01]: Baseball fans here to talk about the divisional series with Uncle Paolo and Michelle Garment, at the Tipton Tribune in Elwood Colleter.
- 0:13[SPEAKER_01]: I'm your host Greg Mengell, the Cubs, Tigers, and Philly Survive.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Philly's are still playing, but we're here soon.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_01]: Stay to one of the day survived, and Yankees did not call your feelings.
- 0:27[SPEAKER_02]: I think Toronto showed itself to be a much better team.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_02]: The Yankee starting pitcher was very good, as he was in his last starting as the red socks and they just have some clutch hits, they don't hit a lot of home, they didn't even hit a home run, but they can hit the ball, they put it in play and they don't strike out and those are, those are tipping factors in the short series like that, I think.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_01]: going to be awfully tough to be, you know, the Mariners, if they get there, I think that would be a pretty good series.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_01]: If the Tigers get their scoobal has to pitch a game five here, only going to be available twice.
- 1:11[SPEAKER_01]: You know, the most kind of things are starting to tilt through the BlueJays aren't they?
- 1:17[SPEAKER_02]: How good do the BlueJays feel tonight?
- 1:19[SPEAKER_02]: Not only do they put their divisional foes away, but then they get to sit back tomorrow.
- 1:26[SPEAKER_02]: and what scubal be used if the tires had bands and the mariners have to throw out some good pitchers too.
- 1:35[SPEAKER_02]: So they get to sit back on hands on back for the mariners.
- 1:38[SPEAKER_02]: They're going to be thrown and then the blue jays can just rest a day and enjoy this spectacle.
- 1:47[SPEAKER_00]: Toronto's offense is pretty scary.
- 1:49[SPEAKER_00]: They just are aggressive at the plate.
- 1:51[SPEAKER_00]: They hit the ball very well and, you know, they're
- 1:55[SPEAKER_00]: pitching is I didn't think it was maybe as good, but it was effective enough against the Yankees.
- 2:03[SPEAKER_00]: But be interesting, they get some time a little bit of time off to see who they face.
- 2:09[SPEAKER_00]: I do think Toronto is looking like a team that is capable of winning the world series.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the question is, when does Aaron Boone get fired by the Yankees?
- 2:24[SPEAKER_01]: I really want to like the Yankees.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_01]: I want to cheer for the Yankees with my uncle, Paul, and Aaron Boone makes it a possible.
- 2:30[SPEAKER_01]: All right, I still think the champions coming out of the national league.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_01]: I think the best three teams are in the national league.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know about Boone's job.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_02]: He did, they did, they did fined off the red socks.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_02]: I sure that helped him a lot.
- 2:50[SPEAKER_01]: What's he done to continue to earn this job?
- 2:55[SPEAKER_02]: I think he brought in cash and see I died, but I don't know.
- 2:57[SPEAKER_02]: I think there'll be a lot of Yankee fans clamoring.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_02]: As somebody pointed out recently, the Yankee's last world series is getting ready to get its driver's license because it's turned in 16.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we did need to point out that my Cutsle wanted to enough to show up live and talk trash, but he did on text.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_02]: It's nice to drop those clever one-liners and then not show up to deliver them.
- 3:29[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
- 3:30[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, those didn't dare to my Cutsle.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_01]: He would be happy to say it to your face.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, I'm channeling Mike.
- 3:35[SPEAKER_02]: So it's a pretty good, it's a, it is.
- 3:38[SPEAKER_00]: So Paul, do you think I don't think the nation has a three best teams
- 3:44[SPEAKER_00]: I do think the Dodgers and the Phillies, the Dodgers, they have been there before and their payroll is a billion dollars.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_00]: The Toronto winner hitting, if they continue to hit like they're hitting, they're going to be tough to eliminate.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_02]: I think they could surprise a whole lot of people, especially on this show who have been talking all season long about all the good teams are in the national league and the America League is pretty weak.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_02]: They went through a stretch where they didn't score runs at September to Ronto, but they look pretty complete.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_02]: When they throw a bullpen game like that, it's pretty impressive.
- 4:18[SPEAKER_01]: They look good against the American League, I'll admit that.
- 4:20[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you know what, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
- 4:25[SPEAKER_01]: So the Phillies are a bait one in the ninth pole.
- 4:28[SPEAKER_01]: You give them a chance to win three straight.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_02]: I think I think you called that last night.
- 4:33[SPEAKER_02]: You were very prescient about them winning today.
- 4:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I said they'd win going away.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_01]: I did say I do think the Dodgers will win the series.
- 4:42[SPEAKER_01]: I just think the Philly can get this done.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_02]: I think it all comes.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_02]: It all comes down to tomorrow.
- 4:48[SPEAKER_02]: I don't see.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_02]: They're only.
- 4:50[SPEAKER_02]: Well, obviously, they're only chance of beating the Dodgers just to win tomorrow.
- 4:53[SPEAKER_02]: But they're in the driver's seat.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_02]: And they took it.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_02]: They took it.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_02]: Well, who I think is the Dodgers best pitcher tonight.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_02]: If you could tell me that the Phillies are two and two and going back home to face the Dodgers, I think I would go, if I had a bookie, I would go talk to a moment about placing a bet for the Phillies.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_00]: If they do, even if they don't go home too too, that stadium is gonna be a real stadium will be rocking.
- 5:22[SPEAKER_02]: I was just gonna say the Dodger fans, when I'm sure they're filing out of that stadium right now.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_02]: The Philly's fans would stay to the bitter end, and they might be a little... Come on.
- 5:35[SPEAKER_01]: Come on.
- 5:35[SPEAKER_02]: No, they're exactly.
- 5:37[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 5:37[SPEAKER_00]: Um... The question is, are the cops going to be able to even the stairs against the bird?
- 5:45[SPEAKER_01]: That's where I was headed next.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I think the cubs were lucky to win today, and I can't see him win in another game, even in home tomorrow.
- 5:54[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going with the birds.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_00]: I've been when surprised, and I think I picked the birds away, and I think I picked it in five.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_00]: I think they are the better and more consistent team, and I think they'll get the cubs.
- 6:08[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I give them a bunch of chance and advance to the world series.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_00]: I just don't think that they will.
- 6:15[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, they scored four runs that day.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_01]: They were all in the first inning.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_01]: The offense still doesn't look very good, even after scoring four runs, but I agree with both of you.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_01]: I think this is over.
- 6:26[SPEAKER_02]: If the growers, if the growers had started any other pitcher besides prester in my opinion, he had an ERA of over eight against the cubs this year.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't know, getting the RA of 54 today.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, he certainly didn't improve that at all.
- 6:44[SPEAKER_02]: But as soon as he's gone, again, I don't know what his situation is, why can't pitch against the cubs.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_02]: But once he was gone, the cubs just did absolutely in an app and just like they kind of been doing it in the series.
- 7:02[SPEAKER_01]: And the only game on Friday, the Tigers at Seattle Seattle has the home field advantage was Detroit have the pitching advantage and what are you guys expected?
- 7:13[SPEAKER_02]: It's easy to pick the Tigers because of the scooble factor, but he's not going to pitch nine innings.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's going to be a very low scoring game, but that's about the only thing I would be confident about.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_02]: But I would still still pick the Mariners.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not sure.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not sure what happened with the Tigers today.
- 7:37[SPEAKER_02]: But if I were the pitching coach for the Mariners, I would never throw hobby by as a strike.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_02]: He knocked in four runs today when they put the ball over the middle of the plate, when he'll swing at anything in the dirt.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_00]: He's been a huge, he's been a big key form.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of, what I, I think, low scoring, and I think that kind of favors, yeah, and that could be wrong, yeah,
- 8:07[SPEAKER_00]: guys that can hit a home and have in this series at home.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_00]: You talk about a fan base.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_00]: It was thrilled to finally get a home play all the game went.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_00]: It's like about a fan base.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be, there's going to be energy.
- 8:21[SPEAKER_00]: People will leave work early if to make sure they get to the ballpark to watch the Mariners Friday night.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_02]: I agree with you a hundred percent in the first three innings, but if the, if the Mariners get behind, you're going to see written on every face, the same thing you saw in Yankee Stadium tonight is like, no, no, not again.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_02]: There's another year.
- 8:43[SPEAKER_02]: And here are the Mariners heavily favored.
- 8:45[SPEAKER_02]: Why they're in a game five with the Tigers is surprising.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_02]: And they're going to need to get somebody besides Josh
- 8:56[SPEAKER_00]: looking like, uh, they have their hitting clothes on, but I don't I'm, Taylor has not really impressed me as much at the play.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_00]: I in fact, I know.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_00]: Well, yeah, maybe today, but I felt that he's, he's had some, at bats where he's been a little bit of, a, a little bit of a disappointing, polanco, did well, is it a reason?
- 9:17[SPEAKER_00]: Carol, Carol, is been pretty effective at the, had been pre-effective at the play.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_01]: It's got a good series.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_00]: It will be,
- 9:24[SPEAKER_00]: It will be interesting at the Mariners can keep those fans on their feet for nine eight and feet off that energy.
- 9:31[SPEAKER_00]: That could easily be a game where a base running air, a feeling air.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_00]: Correct.
- 9:37[SPEAKER_00]: Makes a difference in the outcome of that game.
- 9:40[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's how close and those scoring in that game will be that that could very well be huge.
- 9:47[SPEAKER_02]: I agree.
- 9:48[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's the team that can get the guy from second to third or from third to home with the with the lead off runner.
- 9:57[SPEAKER_02]: There's nobody out on second base.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_02]: You can get that guy in.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to win that game, I think.
- 10:04[SPEAKER_01]: Here's my prediction.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_01]: Two outs in the bottom of the ninth runners on second and third.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_01]: Gino Swara is at the plate, watches strike three down the middle, I can hit him.
- 10:15[SPEAKER_01]: He's not seen it.
- 10:17[SPEAKER_01]: He's not seen it before.
- 10:20[SPEAKER_01]: As a red friend.
- 10:22[SPEAKER_02]: The only consolation for the Yankees fans tonight is that Aaron Judge was up with two outs in the ninth inning and got an RBI hit, rather than make the last out of this season.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_02]: But yes, I think the Mariners fans, if it came down, they needed somebody to come through and A.U.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_02]: Haneo Soras was up at that.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_02]: Game five were always great for drama, so I just think it could go either way.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_01]: And he's looked every bit of the player I expect him to be in this series.
- 10:55[SPEAKER_01]: Has any hit a home run?
- 10:56[SPEAKER_01]: He did.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: I expect him to hit some home runs from Dondita.
- 11:00[SPEAKER_01]: And also strike out way too much.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_02]: If he could get a three round home or it might make up for all the strikeouts.
- 11:11[SPEAKER_01]: It's been a fun week of baseball guys.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_01]: A couple more tomorrow's do it again.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_02]: Let's keep going and stay excited.
- 11:20[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you guys are both earned some Scooby snacks.
- 11:23[SPEAKER_01]: Good night.
- 11:26[SPEAKER_01]: Michelle Capri referring to Scooby as Scooby, it didn't make the cut in the podcast, but that was the reference there at the end.
